Baz Luhrmann’s latest movie, Australia has failed to pull off a David Lean style sprawling epic.
The film is a stimulating mix of romance, adventure and war, and is of old school, melodramatic, rather being classic.
The film dates back to 1939 Australia and stars Nicole Kidman as Lady Sarah Ashley, a courageous Brit widow, who tries to save her ranch from an evil cattle baron.
It was love at first sight for both Bangalorian beauties Deepika Padukone and Anushka Sharma when they had watched Shahrukh Khan’s blockbuster Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ) in 1995.
Deepika as well as Anushka, who have always been passionate SRK admirer, were just school-goers when DDLJ released.
Both the model-turned-actresses have grown up watching almost all his films.
At that time, they didn’t think, even in their wildest dreams, that they would star opposite the megastar in their debut films.
After portraying a scribe and a student in flicks ‘Anasuya’ and ‘Mallepoovu’ respectively, now Bollywod beauty Bhumika Chawla will be seen as an air hostess in her upcoming flick ‘Yagam.’
Bhumika will be sharing screen space with Navadeep and sexy Kim Sharma in this romantic action entertainer.
According to sources, this is the first flick in which Bhumika and her husband Bharat Thakur are working together
Deepika and Ranbir’s relationship is not going through steady weather.
Trouble started when Ranbir and his new co-star Katrina Kaif become close to each other during the shooting of ‘Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani.’
According to sources, after knowing about Ranbirs’s relationship with Katrina, Deepika starts regular fights with her beau (Ranbir Kapoor).
Not all this, to give ‘Tit for Tat’ to Ranbir, the sultry beauty was recently spotted as the arm candy of someone else in a multiplex watching ‘Ghajini’.
With the success of 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi' and 'Ghajini', Bollywood is entering the new year on an optimistic note expecting that big budget movies would register heavy earnings at the box office.
Bollywood is hopeful this year on many high-budget movies, featuring dependable stars, as the liquidity crunch hit the industry in 2008.
Trade sources said that the liquidity crunch shall have its effect this year also as such the industry requires big budget films with big stars to succeed at the box office.
